But if it’s true, this marriage is certainly interesting! The bride and groom’s sides haven’t agreed, yet their wedding preparations are in full swing!
Xiao Linye wasn’t interested in listening to these details and didn’t ask any further.
Lai Shuo was uncertain and added, "The fiancée of Third Young Master Xiao seems to have had an incident at the scene today. She has already been taken to the hospital."
Still, Xiao Linye didn’t join the conversation, obviously not the gossip he liked to hear.
Lai Shuo touched his nose and said no more.
At the hospital, Xiao Shuo was so angry he smashed his phone!
Ye Yuning, that bitch! Who did she think she was? Who had spoiled her to this extent?
He remembered the Qin Family leaving the hotel with a statement: if the matter wasn’t resolved within three days, they would have Ye Tong marry directly into the Qin Family!
His relationship with Ye Tong was still a secret; he had originally planned to make it public after Ye Yuning’s wedding.
But now, Ye Tong’s child was gone.
He recalled his father’s prior opposition to his relationship with Ye Tong; he had to prevent them from just standing by idly. After much thought, Xiao Shuo decided his only option was to have Ye Yuning step in and settle the matter herself.
But that shrew, she cursed at him again...
Furious, Xiao Shuo immediately left the hospital.
Seeing Xiao Shuo leave, Ye Tong’s expression became even more pained.
This also made Zheng Cai very dissatisfied. "You’ve just had surgery," she said. "How can he leave now?"
Ye Tong’s face was pale, and she had no desire to speak.
Zheng Cai glanced at her, extremely anxious, but at that moment she didn’t say anything more.
Today had been chaotic enough for them; now they just wanted to catch their breath.
But seeing Xiao Shuo leave, after a moment of thought, she still decided to call Ye Shilong.
On the phone, Zheng Cai couldn’t suppress her rage. "No matter what, you must find Ye Yuning and send her to the Qin Family!" she seethed. "Today’s farce was caused by Ye Yuning. If the Qin Family wants to beat or kill her, we won’t utter a single complaint!"
She was thoroughly frantic now. For the moment, she couldn’t think of a better solution than to send Ye Yuning to take the blame.
After all, Ye Yuning had indeed agreed to the wedding three days ago. Today’s farce was all her fault.
Who would have expected Ye Shilong, on the other end of the phone, to say through clenched teeth, "Prepare to return those three hundred million to the Qin Family."
Zheng Cai thought she had misheard.
The next moment, she heard Ye Shilong continue, "And, do not make things difficult for that girl."
Not make things difficult for Ye Yuning? And return all three hundred million to the Qin Family? Had he lost his mind?
How could she possibly return something already in her possession? If it had to be returned, Ye Yuning should be the one to do it. Or, they could just hand Ye Yuning over to the Qin Family to account for everything.
Seeing Zheng Cai hemming and hawing, Ye Shilong lost his patience. "It’s not complicated! Just do as I say!"
"Don’t even think about it! That’s three hundred million, not three hundred yuan! Have you found that girl? If you have, send her to the Qin Family right away!"
Right now, Zheng Cai had no interest in understanding why Ye Shilong was behaving so strangely.
All she knew was that handing over those three hundred million was absolutely out of the question!
Not waiting for Ye Shilong to speak further, Zheng Cai hung up the phone furiously.
For a long moment, her chest heaved with agitation; she was clearly extremely angry!
Upon returning to the hospital room, she saw Ye Tong, red-eyed, calling Xiao Shuo.
In the end, Ye Tong even started sobbing. "I’m just so afraid the Qin Family meant what they said, Ashuo. What if your father doesn’t help us? I don’t want to go to the Qin Family, BOO-HOO!"
Her soft weeping sounded pitiful.
On the other end of the phone, Xiao Shuo’s heart softened. "Don’t worry, how could I bear to let you go to the Qin Family? Leave this matter to me; I’ll handle it."
Hearing him say this, Ye Tong still wasn’t at ease.
After all, they had now witnessed firsthand what Ye Yuning was capable of.
That woman was so duplicitous! She’d agreed to things perfectly well, then turned around and reneged on her word, not to mention stabbing them in the back!
Now that her child was gone, there was no guarantee Second Master Xiao wouldn’t oppose her relationship with Xiao Shuo!
Seeing Ye Tong so aggrieved, Zheng Cai grew even more furious. She turned to call Ye Yuning again, persisting even though she knew Ye Yuning wouldn’t answer.
At this moment, Ye Yuning was already in Xiao Linye’s Passat. Seeing Zheng Cai’s call, she dismissed it without a second thought.
Immediately after, Zheng Cai’s message came in: "Pick up the phone! I don’t want to argue. Let’s talk business!"
With things having reached this point, a solution had to be found.
No matter what, she didn’t want to return the entire three hundred million to the Qin Family.
As the car reached the underground garage, just as Ye Yuning was about to get out, she heard Xiao Linye say, "You go up first, I’ll get something."
After speaking, he headed straight to the opened trunk.
Ye Yuning followed and saw two shopping bags crammed full in the trunk, and casually took one.
Xiao Linye instinctively tried to stop her. "Let me do it, it’s heavy!"
Ye Yuning continued walking toward the elevator lobby, replying, "We can each take one. It’ll be easier."
Watching her easily carry her bag, Xiao Linye felt the considerable weight of his own, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Big appetite, big strength, huh?
